Google Scholar (from the library)
Google Scholar is a subset of Google Web Search that enables you to search specifically for scholarly literature, including papers, theses, books, and reports. Google Scholar is strongest in science and technology, but has content in all disciplines.
Note--Using the Google Scholar link from the library (and not from a general Google Scholar Internet search) allows you direct access to articles we have available in our library. Just click FIND IT AT WOU.
If we don't have the article FIND IT AT WOU will allow you to make an Interlibrary Loan request. This is a free service and articles will be delivered to you in 3-4 days.
